Reception

Hardcore Gamer Magazine gave
the game a 1.5/5 saying that it was "so bad that even extremely
fond memories of the original cannot redeem the wretched controls
and dull character design".[1]

Game
Informer gave the game a first-ever 1/10, citing horrible
controls, many racist stereotypes and bad gameplay.

IGN gave the game a 3.5 calling
it extremely frustrating, and not worth trying to gain the
unlockables, even if they were more than half of the game.[2]

GameSpot gave the game
a 3.5 saying that "broken controls destroy any fun that could have
been laid in this arcade boxer"

X-Play gave the game a 3
out of 5, praising the game for its controls, characters, and being
a solid boxer overall. On the negative side, they noted that the
side view isn't as effective as the first-person view and the lack
of Mii support or Nintendo Wi-Fi online play.
